About the Role As Senior Program Manager, Engineering, you will own end-to-end execution for consumer electronic programs – from concept through ramp and sustaining – aligning Engineering, Design, Operations, and GTM teams. You’ll drive schedule, technical risk management, cost targets, and manufacturing readiness, and you’ll be accountable for leadership-level communication and decision making velocity.
What You'll Do
Program leadership and accountability
Own integrated program plans (requirements → EVT/DVT/PVT → ramp) and drive cross‑functional execution against schedule, scope, quality, cost, and launch readiness.
Lead program governance: phase‑gate reviews, exec readouts, decision logs, and clear escalation paths.
Systems Execution
Own integrated program plans (requirements → EVT/DVT/PVT → ramp) and drive cross‑functional execution against schedule, scope, quality, cost, and launch readiness.
Lead program governance: phase‑gate reviews, exec readouts, decision logs, and clear escalation paths.
Risk, quality, and validation
Run end‑to‑end risk management: FMEA‑driven mitigation plans, reliability strategy, test coverage, and validation sign‑offs.
Partner with Operations to deliver DV/PV plans, reliability testing, and field issue triage.
Manufacturing & supply chain leadership
Lead engagement with contract manufacturers and key suppliers: readiness plans, tooling milestones, build planning, yield tracking, and issue resolution.
Drive DFM/DFT outcomes and manufacturing ramp metrics (first‑pass yield, top defects, throughput constraints).
Cost & launch readiness
Manage BOM/COGS targets, trade‑off decisions, and cost‑down roadmaps with Engineering + Ops.
Ensure launch readiness across packaging, labeling, regulatory, serviceability, and sustaining plans.
Build operating rhythm that scales: templates, dashboards, meeting hygiene, and continuous improvement that reduces surprises.
What Success Looks Like in This Role
Programs hit EVT/DVT/PVT gates with clear exit criteria and minimal rework.
Risks are identified early; mitigation plans are funded and executed.
Builds run smoothly; yield improves predictably; top issues are closed fast.
Concise communication focused on risks, decisions, and next steps.
Product ships on time with quality, cost, and customer experience intact.
What You'll Bring
6-10 years in hardware program management/NPI/hardware systems delivery
Track record shipping multiple consumer electronics products from concept → ramp
Hands‑on experience leading EVT/DVT/PVT, phase‑gate governance, and cross‑functional delivery
Experience with CMs/suppliers, build planning, tooling milestones, and ramp execution
Excellent exec communication: tradeoffs, recommendations, and escalation with solutions
Nice to have
Regulatory exposure (e.g., FCC/UL/CE), reliability engineering, environmental testing
Experience with global supply chain constraints, dual‑sourcing, long‑lead planning
Medical/wellness or athlete‑performance product experience
Tools We Use
Smartsheet, MS Office
Windchill, PLM
